Chapter 37.1- One Thousand Hands

It was just a shame that they had bitten off more than they could chew and even worse had no idea what they had gotten themselves into.
We tracked them for an hour, following as they tried to cover as much ground as possible in the time they had. When they had gone far enough by our judgements, we came out of the shadows, jumping in to block their paths.
